Book an appointment for a Colour Doppler – Lower Limb Arterial scan at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, an NABL & NABH Accredited Diagnostic Centre that provides advanced laboratory services and technologies. Colour Doppler ultrasound provides the proper analysis of arteries present in the legs and also helps to diagnose blockages, reduced blood flow, and other abnormalities present in the legs. Our experienced team plays a vital role in performing non-invasive examinations that help to support early diagnosis and better treatment.
About Colour Doppler – Lower Limb Arterial
A Colour Doppler – Lower Limb Arterial scan is an ultrasound that examines and assesses the flow of blood in the arteries present in both legs. It merges conventional ultrasound imaging with Doppler technology so that it assesses the speed and direction of the flow of blood, which identifies how many blockages there are in the blood.
Our experienced team uses advanced laboratory technologies, which include advanced Doppler ultrasound systems that deliver vascular imaging. It diagnoses blood flow abnormalities present in the blood earlier.
What is a Colour Doppler – Lower Limb Arterial Scan?
A Colour Doppler- Lower Limb Arterial scan, while measuring the blood flow in the arteries of the legs it uses high- frequency sound waves so that it produces real-time images. It is a safe, radiation-free, and painless procedure. It helps to detect abnormalities in the blood and reduced blood supply to the lower limbs. The scan assesses major arteries supplying blood to the legs.
Common Reasons for a Colour Doppler – Lower Limb Arterial Scan
Leg pain while walking (claudication)
Cold feet or reduced circulation
Numbness or weakness in the legs
Suspected peripheral arterial disease (PAD)
Diabetes with poor lower limb circulation
Non-healing wounds or foot ulcers
Assessment before vascular surgery or angioplasty
Follow-up after arterial bypass surgery or stent placement
Evaluation of arterial injury following trauma
Monitoring patients with known arterial disease
Conditions Evaluated
Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)
Detects narrowing or blockage of leg arteries caused by atherosclerosis, reducing blood flow to the lower limbs.
Arterial Stenosis or Occlusion
Identifies partial or complete blockage of arteries that may cause pain, tissue damage, or poor circulation.
Arterial Aneurysm
Evaluates abnormal widening or ballooning of leg arteries that may require monitoring or treatment.
Diabetic Vascular Disease
Assesses circulation in patients with diabetes who are at increased risk of arterial disease and foot complications.
Post-Surgical Evaluation
Monitors blood flow after vascular surgery, angioplasty, or arterial stent placement.
Who Should Consider this Scan?
Your doctor may recommend a Colour Doppler – Lower Limb Arterial scan if you:
Experience leg pain during walking or exercise
Have cold feet, numbness, or poor circulation
Have diabetes or high cardiovascular risk
Have non-healing foot ulcers or wounds
Need evaluation before vascular procedures
Require follow-up after arterial surgery or angioplasty
Have suspected peripheral arterial disease

Test information: No preperation needed.
Reporting: Within 01 hour*
No fasting is required for this scan.
No special preparation is needed unless advised by your doctor.
Wear loose and comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the affected leg.
Avoid applying lotions, creams, or oils on the leg on the day of the examination.
Carry previous Doppler studies, ultrasound reports, CT scans, MRI scans, angiography reports, or other relevant medical records if available.
Continue taking your regular medications unless instructed otherwise by your doctor.
Inform the radiologist if you have a history of peripheral arterial disease (PAD), angioplasty, stent placement, bypass surgery, or other vascular procedures.
Inform the radiologist if you have diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, recent leg injury, or symptoms such as leg pain, numbness, cold feet, weakness, or non-healing wounds.
Arrive 15–20 minutes before your scheduled appointment.
इस जांच के लिए उपवास (फास्टिंग) की आवश्यकता नहीं होती है।
डॉक्टर द्वारा विशेष रूप से सलाह न दिए जाने पर किसी विशेष तैयारी की आवश्यकता नहीं होती है।
जांच के दौरान प्रभावित पैर की आसानी से जांच के लिए ढीले और आरामदायक कपड़े पहनकर आएं।
जांच वाले दिन पैर पर कोई क्रीम, लोशन या तेल न लगाएं।
यदि उपलब्ध हों, तो अपनी पुरानी डॉप्लर जांच, अल्ट्रासाउंड, सीटी स्कैन, एमआरआई, एंजियोग्राफी रिपोर्ट या अन्य संबंधित मेडिकल रिकॉर्ड साथ लेकर आएं।
नियमित दवाइयाँ डॉक्टर की सलाह के अनुसार जारी रखें।
यदि पहले परिधीय धमनी रोग (PAD), एंजियोप्लास्टी, स्टेंट, बाईपास सर्जरी या किसी रक्त वाहिका की सर्जरी हुई हो, तो इसकी जानकारी रेडियोलॉजिस्ट को दें।
यदि आपको मधुमेह, उच्च रक्तचाप, उच्च कोलेस्ट्रॉल, हाल की पैर की चोट या पैर में दर्द, सुन्नपन, ठंडापन, कमजोरी या न भरने वाले घाव की समस्या हो, तो इसकी जानकारी भी अवश्य दें।
पंजीकरण और तैयारी के लिए निर्धारित समय से 15–20 मिनट पहले केंद्र पर पहुंचें।
The patient is asked to lie comfortably on the examination table.
A water-based ultrasound gel is applied over the affected lower limb.
A Doppler ultrasound probe is gently moved over the arteries of the leg to evaluate blood flow.
Colour and spectral Doppler imaging are used to assess the direction, speed, and pattern of arterial blood flow in real time.
The examination evaluates arterial narrowing (stenosis), arterial blockages (occlusion), reduced blood flow, aneurysms, and other arterial abnormalities.
Blood flow measurements are recorded at different levels of the lower limb for a comprehensive arterial assessment.
Additional measurements or imaging may be performed when clinically indicated.
The procedure is painless, non-invasive, and does not involve radiation or contrast injection.
The examination usually takes approximately 20–30 minutes, depending on the clinical indication and complexity of the study.
